THANKS.-V7c tender our acknowledgments to
our friend M. M. QUINN for copied of Frank Iss?
ac's Illustrated Paper, and Frank Leslie's Ladies'
Magazine.
WE BET CEN our thanks to Mr. VOGLER, of Mar?
ket street, for a c^py of Frank Leslie's Ladies'
Magazine.
ME. WM. HENDEBSON, of the Bennottsville Journal,
called yesterday at our office. He is in the city on
business connected with his journal.
FrrtE.-A building on Edisto Island, the proper?
ty of Mr. J. J. B. FBE?, and occupiod by him as a
Btore and residence, was burnt down on last Mon?
day night, at aboxit half-past 10 o'clock, and thc
stock of goods, which was largo, entirely dc
troyed. As no fire bad been about the premises,
it is thought that it was the act of an incen?
diary.
THE GEBM?N SUNDAY SCHOOL, attached to the
St. Matthew's Lutheran Church, comer of Hasol
and Anson streets, now numbers three hundred
pupils. Before tho war this school had a very
good librinry, which, however, bas suffered serious
inroads by the casualties of war, as well as by the
natural wear of several years' service. To remody
thi? evil, Mr. HOFFMAN, the Superintendent, bas
arranged an entertainment to come off on Thurs?
day evening nest, at the Hall of the il Bruderliche
Bund,'' Hie prooeeds of which are to be devoted to
the purchase of a new bbrary.
To KEEP OUT LOAFEES.-The boys of Steamer
Company No. 2, at Tolodo, Ohio, have prepared a
novel device to prevent loafers from lounging in
their room. In a long bench, where "visitors"
usually sit, they bavo arranged, by means of spring
wire, email sharp pointed steel instruments, which
have an "elevating'' tendency to those who at?
tempt to occupy the bench. We learn that seve
ralhave been "set up" rather suddenly by the in?
strument of torture, and were not slow to take the
hint intended. The company will not long be
annoyed by those who visit the place for no other
reason than to sit by a good fire, whittle and tel.
stories.
BISHOP ANDBEW.-This distinguished and vener?
able Divine arrived in Charleston on Thursday.
The Bishop is just from the Georgia Conference,
and was en route to the South Carolina Conference,
which is now in session at Marion. In consequence
of the Bishop's advanced age and feeble health, he
will not be able to reach Marion. His numerous
friends in this city have prevailed on bim to spend
some time in Charleston. Bf his health will per?
mit, he will preach Sabbath morning next in
Trinity Church, Hasel street. Bishop ANDBEW,
next to Bishop SOULE, is the oldest Bishop in the
Methodist Episcopal Church in America. He was
born in Georgia in 1793, entered the ministry in
1812, and was ordained Bishop in 1832. Moro than
half a century ago Bishop ANDBEW was stationed
in charge of the Methodist Churches in this city.
Nearly all his early associates have passed away.
Thc Bishop, although feeble, is in fine spirits. He
is enjoying the hospitalities of our townsman,
GEO. W. WILLIAMS', Esq.
APPOINTMENTS TN SOUTHEBN COLLEGES.-Eov.
GEOEGE W. MCPHAIL, o: Norfolk, Ta., who was
called to tho presidency of Davidson College, North
Carolina, has accepted that position. His many
friends in Yirgiaia will have reason to regret his
removal, but at the ?ame time must feel that
Davidson College has made a good selection.
Rev. J. C. STILES i?? called to the presidency of
Oglethorpe University, in Georgia. Mr. STILES is
a native of Georgia,' but has long been a resident
of "Virginia. Thotgh seventy years of age, he is
now engaged; as ne hus been for about six years
past, ia evangelistic labors in the churches at
large, and often ia those of other d?nominations
as well as his owi, his preaching being attended
almost everywhere with remarkable success.
Such a minister cannot well be spared from any
community, bu/ in view of thc influence which his
name, talents ?nd character will give to the uni?
versity, and o' tho repose which such a position
will afford to ihn in his advanced years, it seems
to bc a very jppropriate appointment.
KALMIA.--As the Kalmia Cotton Mills at Hamp?
ton, S. C., ie attracting some attention, we have
gone to thf'trouble of investigating the origin of
this ouphciious appellation. The Kalmia is a spe?
cies of bi?h growing all through tho Southern
Btates oniiigh sandy ground. It is so called after
PETEE E?LM, a pupil of LINNJEUS, just as our Mag
nolia af?r tho botanist, Dr. MAGNOL. Its flower
has a }tlyx five-parted, Corolla salver-form, with
a bor&r continuing at the base into .ten cornute
protuberances, in the cavities of which the anthers
are oncealed. Stamens 10, Stylo 1, Capsule five
celld. The Kalmia Latifdiia, "Calico flower3'' or
"Ivj Bush" is the most common variety of it."
?Dr. J. J. CHISOLM, we understand, belongs
onor of having first suggested the name in
jction with the cotton mills at Hampton. Mr.
GtEGG's settlement near Graniteville had been so
c [led before, and bscame principally known to the
liding public from Mr. YEADON'S letters from
; ilmia, published during tho war.
UNITED STATES DISTBICT COCET_The argu

Hclalor us. tho Mazatlan, for salvage, was con

ballants. The Judge awarded the libellants one
fth of thc appraised value of the ship and cargo
of tho Mazatlan, which being $14,642, the salvage
mil be $2928.10.
MAYOB'S COUET, December. 21.-Henry Drano
and Hastings' Ford, two belligerent men of color,
?who were anxious to givo each other a lesson in
the art of self-defence, at the head of the Market
and thereby collected a crowd and established
themselves as rioters, were arrested and brought
up to the bar, where his Honor, having heard tho
evidence, fined the first $10, and the other $5.
Milo Smith, a "cullud pusson," with no respect
for the law or its officers, and who was determined
to give an exhibition of his contempt to the first
one he came across, paid $5 for threatening a po?
liceman.
J In conse quence of the extreme cold weather last
?ight, there were eight cases of drunkenness and
lying down in the street, some of whom were fined
some put in the cells to warm, and some bound
over to keep the peace.
There were three smokers on the wharves, who
appeared and planked down handsomely.

LARGS CEEAEANCE.-Messrs. W. B. SMITH & Co.
cleared yesterday thc ship JVunquam Dormio. for
Liverpool, with the following hoavy and valuable
cargo, -viz: 61 bags Sea Island and 3552 bales of
Upland Cotton. Tho Hfunquam Dormio ia a first
class merchantman of 1096 tons. The cargo of
this ship is tho largest sont from the port this
season, and is of great value, being put down at
S5GJ,61S.
THE EXHIBITION at the Second Presbyterian
Church last night was a marked success. Tho
church was full, both of small and large children.
Professor HOLMES' benoptric lantern behaved ad?
mirably. The Scripture scenes were brought home
to every eye, and delighted the entire audience,
but the church mouse carried off the palm, hoing
certainly the funniest sceno exhibited to the high
delectation of the juveniles. The Sunday School,
for whose benefit this exhibition was given, owe
Professor HOLMES a large debt of gratitude. The
singing was very fine, speaking well for tho pains
taken by Mr. C. N. AVERILL, under whose direc?
tion this part .of the exercises was performed.
NEW PUBLICATIONS.-Wo are indebted to Messrs.
E. J. DAWSON & Co. for two valuable Law Re?
ports-one of the Common Law series, and one ol
the Equity series-the former edited by J, R.
BULWER, Q. C.. and the latter by G. W. HEMMING,
Barrister at Law.
Mr. DAWSON has also sent ns a copy of the new
edition of the History of South Carolina, by WM.
GILMORE SIMMS, published by RICHAEDSON & Co.
This work is too well known in all our schools tc
need commendation from ns.
BLACKWOODS MAGAZTNE.-Mr. RUSSELL has sent
us the November number of Old Ebony. The
contents are as follows : ^
1. Nina Balatka. 2. Cornelius O'Dowd. *3. His?
toric Portraits. 4. Sir Brook Fossbrooke, con?
clusion. 5. Scraps of Verse from a Tourist's Jour?
nal. 6. Celestial Rule and Rebellion. 7. Three
Presidents of the United States. 8. What should
the Ministers do ?.
"Nina Balatka" is an excessively dull and prosy
story. Cornelius O'Dowd gets off a good tiling
occasionally, bnt he is a cantankerous old chap,
full of crotchets and prejudices, and not a safe
guide. The article on the Three American Presi?
dents (ANDBEW JACKSON, ABRAHAM, LINCOLN, and
ANDREW JOHNSON) displays a great deal of igno?
rance of the true character of these men, as wei]
as an entire misconception of many of their pub?
lic acts. On the whole, "Blackwood" is getting tc
be a very stripid Magazine, rapidly - pushed to thc
wall by many of its younger, more dashing anc
rigorous competitors. As we do not like to give
up old friends; we hope that old Maga will re?
juvenate somewhat, and not give Tip the race with
Mit a struggle.
CHARLESTON INDIA RUBBER FACTORY.-By invita
fcion we yesterday visited this new institution fo:
the manufacture of heavy rubber, such as ca:
3prings, belting, hose,- packing, &c, situated a
Rikersville, near the Ashley River. Tho building ii
a larg 2 and substantial structure of wood, 120 fee
long and 50 feet wide, with a boiler house and i
3hed adjoining, the whole length of the buildinj
containing tho heater for vulcanizing the rubber
The machinery is of the most improved character
md capable of turning out the best goods in larg
quantities,-of the style they propose to manufac
ture,-and at as cheap rates as can be had North
The machinery is driven by a fine engine of Co
horse power, mado at Trenton, N. J., which i
?upplied with steam from two large flue boilers
built hy Messrs. FEEEMAN & PDNDT, of this city
and as a whole it "is conceded that this will be as
complote a rubber faotory as any in the country.
The President of this Company, Mr. H. D
STOVEE, has had much experience, and has assc
ciated with him men of energy and indqmitabl
perseverance, whose efforts will overcome all ol
stacles. Mr. JOSIAH J, BURGESS, thc Manager an
Treasurer, was President of tho Mead Rubbe
Company of Trenton, N. J., and is a large stool
holder in this. A. BEOWN is tho Secretary, an
CHAS. P. DODGE Assistant Secretary, with JOH
M. EASTERBY Superintendent, and H. J. KNAUP
Engineer. The Trustees of the Company are E
D. STOVER, J. J. BURGESS, THOS. PAYNE, JOH
MURRAY and EDWAED HEABN.
The machinery has been put in full operatioi
working to the entire satisfaction of all, and th
manufacture of rubber may be soon- expected i
our city. The Company intend to continue mal
ing improvements on their property, which, in
Bhorfc time, will doubtluss present a flourishin
and pleasing appearance.

street, who has on hand a most elegant assortmei
of crockeryware, of every variety and patten
which ho is ready to dispose of on the most rei
Bonable terms. . In his extensive stock will be form
many articles which will make capital ?hristnu
presents.
KINSMAN'S is a pleasant place to visit just nov
There is no store on King street more fr?quente!
whether for ice cream in summer, toys and minc
pies at Christmas, or cake and candy at all time;
Thero is a great variety of tempting articles dil
played here, and everytning of the best. Tho ?
cent fire for a while necessitated the closing <
the establishment, hut Mr. K. is irrepressible, an
although both lire and water tried their best i
extinguish him, he was not "put out" by the*
fierce elements. He soon conquered fortune, si
